Description
Style and performance come together in the American Custom Telecaster, a top-of-the-line guitar that offers a wealth of different tones and an impeccable playing experience. With its versatile pickups and gorgeous Violin Burst finish, this Tele is an undeniably striking axe that sounds and looks killer in any setting. If you've been searching for an incredible modern Fender that blends classic designs with advanced features, this guitar is a perfect fit.
The American Custom Telecaster features a two-piece select ash body that gives it a sweet, full sound with excellent sustain and bright, bell-like highs. Its NOS lacquer finish lets the body breathe and resonate better, and its roasted 2A birdseye maple neck has a gorgeous appearance. It doesn't just look great, though - the neck's 1960 Oval C profile and compound-radius round-lam rosewood fingerboard play remarkably well for a wide range of styles and techniques.
Giving this guitar its signature sound is a hand-wound Texas Special Tele bridge pickup and a Seymour Duncan SH55 Seth Lover neck humbucker. Together, these pickups cover all the tonal bases - whether you need that rich, warm, humbucking warmth or that bright Telecaster twang, this axe is more than capable of delivering the goods.
Complete with a '58-'63 Tele Bridge with RSD compensated brass saddles and Sperzel die-cast tuners, the American Custom Telecaster is excellent for players seeking a premium modern Fender.
